I craved to create surrealist figures that could conform to my drawings. The sketch on the wall, which was on a two-dimensional surface was my self-portrait gazing into my consciousness. The figures in the room were reflections of the world of my imagination. The entire space was for the audience to walk into my sociopathic mind.
Design and Executed in 2013.
It had always been my dream to magnify a toy truck into a real life-size object since I was a kid. I got my permission to do this project in my first year of college in San Francisco. It documented my process from the beginning to the end.
